    Notes: The DIII-D tokamak is being upgraded to allow for divertor biasing, baffling, and pumping experiments. This paper gives an overview of the new diagnostics added to DIII-D as part of this advanced divertor program. They include tile current monitors, fast reciprocating Langmuir probes, a fixed probe array in the divertor, fast neutral pressure gauges, and Hα measurements with TV cameras and fiber optics coupled to a high-resolution spectrometer.

    Notes: Six infrared cameras measure temperature changes on the protective graphite armor inside the DIII-D vacuum vessel. Simultaneous time-dependent temperature measurements are made on armor tiles located on the centerpost and divertor regions, and on both outboard limiters. The nearly complete poloidal coverage is useful in measuring both the plasma heat flux distributions inside the vessel and the plasma power balance. Spatial resolution of each camera system is (approximately-less-than)1 cm, while the minimum resolvable time is 125 μs. Data from the IR TV systems are recorded on video tape, and are post-processed serially, using an image processor with an AT-compatible microcomputer. The processing system controls all VCRs, interprets DIII-D timing pulses, digitizes video data in the predetermined regions of interest, averages digitized signals to reduce noise, and constructs data files which are then stored as part of the permanent shot record.

    Notes: A fast reciprocating probe has been developed for DIII–D which can penetrate the separatrix during H mode with up to 5 MW of NBI heating. The probe has been designed to carry various sensor tips into the scrape-off layer at a velocity of 3 m/s and dwell motionless for a programmed period of time. The driving force is provided by a pneumatic cylinder charged with helium to facilitate greater mass flow. The first series of experiments have been done using a Langmuir probe head with five graphite tips to measure radial profiles of ne, Te, φf, ñe, and φ˜f. The amplitude and phase of the fluctuating quantities are measured by using specially constructed vacuum compatible 5-kV coaxial transmission lines which allow us to extend the measurements into the MHz range. TTZ ceramic bearings and fast stroke bellows were also specially designed for the DIII–D probe. Initial measurements will be presented.

    Notes: A process has been developed that enables the rapid chemical vapor deposition of superconducting YBa2Cu3Ox. In this process a finely ground mixture of Y(tmhd)3, Ba(tmhd)2, and Cu(tmhd)2 (tmhd=2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionate) is slowly fed, and pneumatically transported, directly into the chemical vapor deposition furnace. Because vaporizers are not used, the number of process parameters that must be controlled is greatly reduced. Deposition rates are at least an order of magnitude greater than those achieved by reagent sublimation. Films have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, and resistance versus temperature measurements. Films produced on planar MgO substrates have Tc values that are significantly higher than previously reported for MgO.

    Notes: The power flow to the DIII-D divertor targets is routinely measured using infrared (IR) thermography. An IR television camera sensitive to radiation in the 8–12-μm range views the divertor region using a set of germanium optics. Digital signal processing is used to extract the desired surface temperature profiles from the analog data ((approximately-equal-to)12 Mbytes) stored on videotape. Inversion of these data using a simple matrix formulation of the inverse heat conduction problem then yields the incident heat flux as a function of space and time. Results from a DIII-D discharge are included.

    Notes: Two prototype Langmuir probes (based on a JET design) have been installed near the outer strike point on the divertor floor in the DIII-D tokamak. Results from these graphite probes were used to design a full array of Langmuir probes for the DIII-D divertor and an additional set of probes for the bias ring of the Advanced Divertor program. The design allows for the projected area of the probes to be relatively insensitive to the magnetic field angle in the divertor region, while projecting the intercepted heat flux over a much larger area. The prototype probes have survived the full separatrix plasma flux during both L- and H-mode operation. I/V characteristics during high power neutral beam operation exhibit electron temperatures approaching 50 eV and large negative floating potentials near the outer separatrix strike point. Edge localized modes cause an increase in the ion flux as large as a factor of 10 above the H-mode level. As a result, a new set of faster, higher voltage electronics will be used for the full array. The electronics will be capable of floating either with the divertor floor or with the bias ring.

    Notes: Several diagnostics measure the particle sources and losses in the Tandem Mirror Experiment-Upgrade (TMX-U) plasma. An absolutely calibrated high-speed (0.5 ms per frame) filtered (6561 A(ring)) video camera measures the total ionization source as a function of radius. An axial view of the plasma automatically integrates the axial variations within the depth of field of the system. Another camera, viewing the plasma radially, measures the axial source variations near the deuterium fueling source. Axial ion losses are measured by an array of Faraday cups that are equipped with grids for repelling electrons and are mounted at each end of the experiment. Unequal ion and electron (nonambipolar) radial losses are inferred from net current measurements on an array of grounded plates at each end. Any differences between the measured particle losses and sources may be attributed to ambipolar radial losses and/or azimuthal asymmetries in the particle-loss profiles. Methods of system calibration, along with details of computer data acquisition and processing of this relatively large set of data, are also presented.

    Notes: We have developed an optical diagnostic system suitable for characterizing the performance of energetic neutral beams. An absolutely calibrated CCD video camera is used to view the neutral beam as it passes through a relatively high-pressure (10−5 Torr) region outside the neutralizer: collisional excitation of the fast deuterium atoms produces Hα emission (λ=6561 A(ring)) that is proportional to the local atomic current density, nearly independent of the species mix of accelerated ions over the energy range 5–20 keV. Digital processing of the video signal provides profile and aiming information for beam optimization.
